At one time you could pay extra for priority service, might look into that. We filed to document along with all the forms indicating length, displacement and so forth immediately after we purchased the boat, used of course. Shortly after, we received our documentation certificate along with a notice that the boat was previously documented and the Coast Guard reassigned the original documentation number to us. We were not aware it was previously documented.

The dealer provided a title for the boat but we could have had a problem if there somehow been a screw up with leans filed with the Coast Guard prior to it being titled.
